Some Fun

I know I just posted yesterday but I wanted to put some recent pictures up. Max and Rowan are together with me in the kitchen. (I think I am almost always in the kitchen) Kieran now enjoys the snow! - he was helping Dad shovel the driveway this morning. He is rather skilled at using the shovel for being one and it is pretty fun to watch.

Max and Kieran are playing with (as they call him) their best cousin Aiden. Dirt is as close as we could get to sand - ha ha. They had a blast anyway. Aiden fits right in with the boys.

This Week

Well this week went by a little too quickly. Kieran has started saying two word sentences and it is pretty cute. Max got to stay home from school for two days because he was sick, which is no fun for him, the sick part that is, but I do enjoy having him home all day. I miss him when he is at school. I considered letting him stay home an extra day just so we could hang out but I don't want to start bad habits in the first grade. Rowan is growing like a champ. He smiles and laughs and loves to hold blankets. Kieran rode a skateboard for the first time today (with Mom of course) and he giggled with glee as we went down our rather sloped sidewalk.

The Cutest Baby

If we entered a cutest baby contest I think we would win!

Bugs in my Banana Bread!

So we all know how banana bread has those little black banana fiber things - I don't know what they are called, but you probably know what I am talking about. Well this morning we had banana bread for breakfast and Kieran is eating his happily and then says - "mama mama" and while pointing to his bread says "Bugs, mama bugs" Needless to say he didn't finish his bread. I had such a laugh.

Christmas Break!!!!

So as promised here are some pictures of our Christmas Break. We went to the zoo lights and we had a really good time. It turned out to be a rather mild winter night and we could barely see our breath. We are looking forward to next year when everyone can go.

We have a family tradition of bowling on Christmas Day and it was k's first time bowling. He actually had more fun playing with cousins and cheering but overall it was a fun time for everyone. Mom even got the high score one game of 170. Go Mom! We actually went bowling again today and K beat us all (with dad's help - of course) Here are the boys with Sunshine on Christmas Eve. We had a good time!

Here is M doing a great job at his Christmas concert!!!!

Christmas

We made it through another holiday season. We had a good time opening presents and sharing the day together. Dad is home this week from work and we are having a great time. He has taken the older two swimming (we recently joined our local rec center) and tonight we are going to the zoo lights at the Denver Zoo. Yes, we are leaving the baby home with our most trusted baby babysitter. I am excited that there is no school and don't look forward to next week when M has to go back. I'll post pictures of Christmas and the zoo tomorrow!

First Snow

So it finally snowed enough, last week, to go outside and play. It was k's first time out in the snow and he sure did not like it. He was cold and shivering and wanted nothing to do with the snow. He lasted about 5 minutes. Ha! it was only about 15 degrees outside brrrrr. Big brother loves the snow so he will be elated that it has snowed again today!
